Parking issues, especially around local schools as it is danger to children and residents

Issue raised on 18 Nov 2010

What we did: Local PCSO's have met with parents who will be sending children to the school in the new term to make clear the safety issues that exist around this sensitive area. Parking is always going to be a problem, however if parents are responsible we can make sure the area is made even safer for children. We also work closely with "NSL" who are the parking enforcement company for the local authority to patrol these areas at peak times. What happened? Road safety is an issue that will also be a top priority for many people. We will continue to work on this issue all the time to make sure that accidents are kept to a mimimum.

What we did: Our traffic department constantly patrol our roads ensuring their safe usage. Neighbourhood Police officers and Specials have been trained in the speed detection devices and have been deployed at various sites highlighted by yourselves around the town.

We have had numerous interventions with various members of the public which have been resolved in a number of ways. Many of these people who's driving has fallen below the expected standard have been hilighted by yourselves via operation crackdown.
